Default W98 booting to safe mode only

Hi.=20

I have this same very problem. I've installed a second HD=20
in my AthlonXP clone. First booted to prompt (not in=20
windows mode) then used Fdisk to partition 2nd drive.=20
Note: never touched my first drive!!! then I restarted the=20
machine now I get a "General Protection Error: Windows=20
must be restarted" after initial W98 boot screen and=20
system is halted.

=BFDid I messed up anything in my machine, although I did=20
nothing to my boot drive (although the results suggests=20
that I did unadvertedly)?

Thanks for your time and best regards....
